Reduce Your Risk of Burnout

Lack of Death Notification Training Identified as Risk Factor for Burn Out

A study published in 2020 found that EMS professionals who had delivered >5 death notifications in a 12 month period demonstrated 73% greater odds of burnout. Luckily, that same study found that training was the antidote. Death notification training as part of ongoing education was associated with a 29% reduction in the odds of burnout.
